Maximum givers

Hundreds of people have given the maximum $25,000 per year they can send to the national party committees since a law capped their donations.

The Republican National Committee has landed the most maximum donors - at least 700 since a ban on corporate, union and unlimited donations known as soft money took effect starting with the 2003-04 election cycle, separate reviews by the nonpartisan Center for Responsive Politics and campaign finance tracking service Political Money Line found.

Under the new law, parties can accept up to $25,000 a year from individuals and political action committees.
